A'ight... Learn to let people go.
So I skipped a post the other night because I was having the time of my life at a Karaoke bar a short ride away from where I live. I was the DD for the night, but that didn't stop me from having THE BEST FUCKING TIME EVER WITH FRIENDS! Even us Fat Bitches gotta have their fun. ;)
After a few drinks, I gotta get a couple friends sober for their ride home, so we all go to a Denny's nearby. When we walk in, I scan the scene just to take in who's around and I immediately spot a coworker. Not a good worker that you wanna go "EEEEeeeyyy! It's you! Sup, brah?" No, this is the kind of coworker you PURPOSEFULLY avoid eye contact with when you're out of the workplace because outside of the workplace there are no rules as to how you have to treat them. And believe me, sometimes I would love to just strangle this little useless turd until he goes purple and blue. You don't do your job, you sit on your phone all goddamn shift and text and play around with it and YOU TELL US ABOUT YOUR SECOND JOB.
Let me explain. This guy doesn't have an ordinary second job. No, this little turd has admitted to being a DRUG DEALER.
What the fuck. You don't admit that to anyone. Like, ever.
The worse part is that when this guy was hired, our manager was all like: Well, my SON vouched for his working ethics so I'll hire him based off of that. Yeah, a druggie, useless turd was hired as a third key to our store. And this guy has managed to stick around for over two months. At first, he was pretty okay, but afterwards he just let loose and stopped giving a fuck about his job. He would even go sign spinning because it was "boring" inside.
Um, sorry, brah. You are not getting paid 9.50 an hour just to twirl a goddamn piece of plastic and cardboard around. Especially if I get paid 8.00 to do the cleaning, the go-backs, the straightening, the customer service, the opening, the closing, AND cleaning up after YOUR shit. Hell to the fucking no. After watching this, my manager FINALLY got fed up. Especially after her assistant manager left because she refused to let this fucking idiot go.
YOU COULDN'T HAVE LET HIM GO EARLIER? Jesus, you're like a clingy girl in an abusive relationship, you take all his shit until your friends abandon you because you're beyond hope and you're in serious denial. Your two assistants, your sales associates all told you that they hated him because he didn't do any work. Did you think we were JOKING about that?! There is a Spice Girls song that works in this scenario:
"If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends.
Make it last forever friendship never ends.
If you wanna be my lover, you have got to give.
Taking is too easy, but that's the way it is."
Amen, Spice Girls, you classy buncha singers.
You are the girl, your friends are the coworkers that have been with you through thick and thin and try their hardest to help in any way they can. Your lover is the newbie. Look at the song. Loooook at it. Get it? Yeah, that's how it should be. If you're in a retail store, ya gotta give and keep giving in order to get something back. Otherwise your coworkers wanna strangle you until you're blue and purple. It really does suck, the guy was all cool and nice at first, but then he got lazy and became a douche. Le sigh.
Anyway, my moral for the day is to never, ever cling onto someone (Workplace or otherwise) and hope that they change after you've told them over and over and over again to do something because their current behaviors are negatively affecting you, and they show absolutely NO signs of changing their behavior. That's messed up, seriously. Had that happen to me and I got burned so badly I'm STILL seeing a therapist about that shit.
All right all, stay classy.
